Job Description & Requirements
Youth Development & Applied Skills Programmes
Company Overview
The Narrative Nest Singapore designs and delivers contemporary education programmes for schools and youth organisations.
Our workshops focus on youth development, communication, and applied real-world skills, helping students build confidence, self-awareness, and the ability to express their ideas effectively.
Rather than lecture-style teaching, our sessions are interactive, practice-based, and discussion-driven. Students engage in structured activities, peer collaboration, and guided reflection to develop both thinking and communication skills.
Our programmes may cover areas such as:
- Communication and self-expression
- Leadership and personal development
- Career awareness and applied life skills
- Digital and media literacy
- Critical thinking and decision-making
We work primarily with upper primary, secondary, and youth audiences, creating learning experiences that are structured, engaging, and relevant to real-world contexts.
